I often get asked what Kenōsis means. Before I go directly to the definition I want you to imagine those pivotal moments in your life that left you feeling empty and depleted. Think about those times when you bared your soul to another person and was left feeling completely raw and exposed. Not only do feelings of emptiness cause a person distress but relationships contribute to the depletion of life as well. Kenōsis, in Greek, means the emptying and depletion of life. Kenōsis Counseling, to me, means tending to a person during the moments of emptiness. There are also biblical references to the term Kenōsis, this is when Jesus emptied himself entirely of his humanness to become receptive to God and the divine will. Whether you identify with any religious belief or not, we all can relate to feeling of emptiness. I have a dream for this company to become a therapeutic team of people who work towards providing a sense of relief from the emptying, and fill the community up with hope, connection, peace, and healing.
